Abstract

Significant research efforts are being performed in Europe, Japan and the U.S. to develop the technology to increase the steam temperature in fossil power plants in order to achieve greater efficiency and reduce the amount of greenhouse gases emitted. The realization of these advanced steam power plants will require the use of nickel-based superalloys having the required combination of high temperature creep strength, oxidation resistance, thermal fatigue resistance, thermal stability and fabricability. HAYNES® 230® and 282® alloys are two alloys that meet all of these criteria. The metallurgical characteristics of each alloy are described in detail, and the relevant high temperature properties are presented and discussed in terms of potential use in advanced steam power plants.
